Regenerate Al-Mg-Si-type aluminum alloy method for removing iron
Technical field
The invention belongs to aluminium-alloy iron-removing technical fields, remove iron side more particularly, to a kind of regeneration Al-Mg-Si-type aluminum alloy
Method.
Background technique
It is compared with copper, iron, steel, aluminium is a kind of very young metal.But since the density of aluminium and aluminium alloy is small, plasticity
Well, intensity is high and has very strong corrosion resistance and good conductivity, and it is each to have been widely used for food, automobile, building, machinery etc.
Industry.
China is currently that the first big country of primary aluminum yield, production aluminum amount account for 40% or more world aluminum yield in the world.With primary aluminum
Yield is more and more, and the bauxite resource being enriched in society is also more and more, in addition, the exhaustion of bauxite resource and energy cost are not
Disconnected to improve, aluminum production cost is also gradually got higher.Therefore, to the processing and recycling of the aluminum products scrapped, become the following Aluminum
One important directions of development.Compared with producing primary aluminum, the secondary aluminium of production phase homogenous quantities saves 90% energy, reduces 40%
Waste discharge and reduce by 60% production cost.
But having a serious problem during waste aluminum recovery, there is a large amount of impurity element, impurity in aluminium scrap
Element and inclusion content are high, greatly limit the development and application of secondary aluminium alloy.It is especially miscellaneous with iron in all impurity elements
Matter requirement is most stringent, and iron tramp seriously affects its comprehensive mechanical property and corrosion resistance in high-quality aluminum alloy, so, it
Develop high-performance aluminium alloy, it is necessary to solve and eliminate the influence of ferro element.
It is maximum with the harm of ferro element in numerous impurity elements.Fe solid solubility in aluminium alloy is very low, when Fe content is super
When 0.4%, it is easy to form coarse gill shape Fe phase with other elements in aluminium alloy, form close to FeSiAl5(i.e. β-Fe
Phase) compound.It has seriously isolated matrix, generates stress and concentrates and sprout crackle, in process of deformation, matrix and brittleness
It is precipitated on intersection interface and is easy to produce hole.When Fe content is more than 0.7%, coarse β-Fe mutually will largely exist.Fe is divided by
Except influencing on material property, also the flowing of molten metal can be hindered during solidification, to increase the shrinkage cavity of ingot casting and loose
The defects of.Needle-shaped Fe phase hardness is higher, and cutter is worn in machining process, cannot be guaranteed element precision.
In order to reduce the harm of needle-shaped Fe phase, research method mainly includes two classes at present: the first kind is to use Metamorphism treatment,
Addition or changes Fe phase morphology using special technique at chemical element, make coarse acicular beta-Fe phase transition harmfulness compared with
Small α-Fe phase;Another kind is to utilize physicochemical properties different between Fe-riched phase and melt, Jin Erda using physical method
To the purpose for removing iron, including the separation of settling methods, centrifugal separation, electromagnetism, electroslag refining and filtering etc..Centrifuge separation increases
Production process, trivial operations are unsuitable for industrial production.Electromagnetism separation is more demanding to the pattern of Fe phase, when electromagnetic force is permeated
When depth deficiency, it will lead to irregular Fe phase and move irregular, be easy to produce turbulent flow, remove iron rate to reduce.Electroslag refining
Research is also relatively fewer at present, and rests in the research of fine aluminium, exists simultaneously to elements such as silicon, magnesium and does not study specifically.
Al-Mg-Si-type aluminum alloy is a kind of using aluminium, magnesium, silicon as the forging of principal component and casting alloy.General magnesium content is
5% or so, silicon content is 0.8%~1.3%.A small amount of zinc, manganese, titanium is added to improve intensity simultaneously.Silicon and magnesium elements generate
Mg2Si, the corrosion resistance of alloy is especially good to the corrosion resistance of seawater, is easy to carry out anodic oxidation and obtain beautiful film.?
In high purity alumina-magnesia alloy, it is the alloy of elongation maximum, machinability, and corrosion-resistant, toughness, anodization performance are good, casting
Performance is poor, for stringing, accessory ship part, handle, engraving blank, office furniture and aircraft electric mounting articles etc..
By taking ZL302 aluminium alloy as an example, chemical component are as follows: content of magnesium about 5%, silicone content about 0.8~1.3%, manganese content is low
In 0.6%, Ti content is less than 0.2%, and iron content is lower than 0.3%, and surplus is aluminium.
